Abstract of Information Available 

Based on the information available,

collected at the Chemawa (Salem) 

Indian School, Marion County, OR. The 

human remains are hair clippings 

collected from two individuals who 

were recorded as being 15 years old and 

identified as ‘‘Blackfoot.’’ James T. Ryan 

took the hair clippings at the Chemawa 

(Salem) Indian School between 1930 

and 1933. Ryan sent the hair clippings 

to George Woodbury, who donated the 

hair clippings to the PMAE in 1935. No 

associated funerary objects are present.

and the results of consultation, cultural 

affiliation is clearly identified by the

The PMAE has determined that: 

• The human remains described in 

this notice represent the physical 

remains of two individuals of Native 

American ancestry.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant 

to the provisions of the Privacy Act of 

1974, as amended, 5 U.S.C. 552a, the 

DOI is rescinding the INTERIOR/NPS–5, 

Retirement Record, system of records 

notice (SORN) and removing it from its 

system of records inventory. The 

primary purpose of the system of 

records was to maintain employees’ 

Federal employment history and 

retirement contributions. During a 

review of NPS SORNs, it was 

determined that this notice is no longer 

necessary as the records in the system 

are covered under the Department-wide 

SORN, INTERIOR/DOI–85, Payroll, 

Attendance, Retirement, and Leave 

Records, 83 FR 34156 (July 19, 2018). 

Therefore, DOI is rescinding the 

INTERIOR/NPS–5, Retirement Record, 

SORN to eliminate an unnecessary 

duplicate notice and ensure compliance 

with the Privacy Act of 1974 and Office 

of Management and Budget Circular A– 

108, Federal Agency Responsibilities for 

Review, Reporting, and Publication 

under the Privacy Act. Rescinding the 

INTERIOR/NPS–5, Retirement Record, 

SORN will have no adverse impact on 

individuals as the records are covered 

under the INTERIOR/DOI–85, Payroll, 

Attendance, Retirement, and Leave 

Records, SORN. This rescindment will 

also promote the overall streamlining 

and management of DOI Privacy Act 

systems of records.
